Hadn't considered them until you mentioned it. The STI isn't what I'd consider a lightweight either-- it's all of 3400lbs with me in the seat.

It's way fun on the street but it'll be deboosted via a pulley change to about 5-6 psi (probably ~575-600 crank hp) for real tracks with turns. The engine and chassis would never live on a roadcourse at the 15psi of boost I run on the street and I don't pretend it would-- I'd heatsoak the sucker in a lap! I also don't have the brakes and all the other ancillary equipment that would be up to the task of handling 15psi on the track. I'm not lying to myself... I know I will have a handful at 5-6 psi of boost, leaving it at 15psi would be well beyond my abilities and the chassis capabilities. I'll still have fun though.

LOL! I took it as a jab in my direction from the 1000hp thread that I had a little comment in.

Go back to polishing your billet.

If only pads were $20 an axle, I'd buy about 10 different compounds from various brands and try all of them! Unfortunately they're not so I'd prefer to buy right the first time. Choices, choices. STOP MAKING THIS HARD TOM! Screw it, I'm gonna go get some lifetime pads from Midas.
